I couldn't agree more. English has a hideous syntax, gets all its fancy words from French, and has no identity really. It is so sad that Indians worship this language. It's fine if Indians want to learn English just like Germans and Persians do, fine, but Indians actually worship English. It's pathetic.@@rka-truthalwayswins5127

It's the various Govt. fault (all the governments not just BJP) allowing minorities to live in their own areas, go to their own schools and madarsas instead of requiring that in a democracy all are equal and must go to the same schools, etc. Such madarssas schools should be banned as they only favour one religion and are separatist. Clothes and fashion should also be somehwat similar. No religious beards or burkas or clothes to be allowed in public as that encourages separatism.
Good interview, Tharoor reflected his opinions & principles clearly & honestly. I just wish the interviewer had challenged him & pressed him a little more as he often prefers a vigorous debate.
That would have then reduced the number of topics that were being discussed. Plus there's a time limit to these events. Reason why Dr. Tharoor himself pressed to get to the audience Q & A at the end.
Successive Chiefs of the Congress Party including Indira Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi used to go to the “Shahi Imam” of Delhi to plead for Muslim votes. So, it was Congress Party’s official policy. You cannot brush it out as though asking for Muslim votes was only by a few insignificant Congress Party members. This official policy of the Congress Party greatly helped BJP as many voters considered the Congress Party was partisan towards Muslims.
Tharoor says it’s completely wrong to think India was named so by British colonialism. The Greeks used this name 1000 years ago.India- the land beyond the river Indus , Sindhu.You’re a outright 2 rupee troll or an unabashed liar.
I am a middle class Indian. It is said that 100 People own the 90 percent of wealth. But there is a catch. These 100 people only have say 1 percent of their own wealth usable for their personal needs and say 99 percent is invested in business. So is it not different from the wealth of an individual who simply puts all his money in fixed deposit and lives on interest. The 100 people take risks for running their business and that gives employment and wealth to their employees as well. Their spending filters down to other small businesses. Nothing of the sort happens with the wealth of the other fixed deposit individual. And I don't include just Ambani's, Adanis, Tatas, Birlas but also others who invest in business for example in film industry as well because that gives employment. So we should I think want there not just 100 wealthy but given India's population 1 lakh filthy rich whose wealth is primarily invested in employment generating industry. If Tharoor or the anchor thinks the 100 richest is a problem- so what does he want there should not be industrialists who run business and become rich and that wealth should bevwith govt who cant run businesses competitively,! Then he says he wants investment in Kerala ,_ he is confused, he should want 1 lakh rich individuals who compete to invest - do you agree
The interviewer talks about india's failure in the G20 being another country's victory, and you know who it seems. That is so juvenile and reduces an otherwise quite intellectual discussion.

Give me the name of a country that has been invaded as much as India has been with it's cultural fabric being destroyed and rewoven every 200 years. India is a land of contradictions and paradoxes because it is the culmination of a lot of cultures, traditions, and revolutions from various parts of the world. It's the only country that accepts everyone and everything while maintaining a thread of consistency in the growth of it's civilization.
Yes the Country cannot go forward unless you are backward....and congress is the main culprit in this. Congress should have brought in merit based society right from 1947
Establishment of true and pure democracy where the leaders consistently try for establishing social justice will only solve the problems facing the people around the world.
A versatile speaker & capable person from Indian National Congress who will never get the opportunity to lead his Party. There is no Democracy in his own Party.
Institutions were autonomous in India before? When? All govts exploited them to clear their path. You can criticize all you want but painting a picture as if this is some new phenomenon in posh English doesn't make it true This govt merely expanded CBI etc capacity which ideally states should have done about their police forces
This is politics." Electoral autocracy" , the term, is a contradiction in terms. Whoever has coined the term has , perhaps, his own definition of democracy. People's representatives must rule decisively to bring about national development not like indecesive coalition s of yore in India. Was declaration of emergency in 1975, dismissing state governments at will, not electoral autocracy.

@@finegentleman7820If indeed Adani's salesman has become the PM, then the opposition should have the ethical and moral courage to ensure that Adani does not get more business. Having said that ALL states where the opposition is in power are welcoming Adani to do business there. So what do we have here? Your logic falls apart here as the basis of the same is the hate of one person and his party. This is neither democratic nor has the temper to accept the opposite voice.

India and Hindustan are words that come from a province and a river of Pakistan. Sindh and river Indus respectively. India was never a country before 1947 but a sub continent.
Then why our epic is called Maha Bharatha . Why British called their Colonial company East India Company . Though India was a collection of nation states the great Indian empire was there not strictly in political entity but surely in cultural and spiritual circles

You forget the other side of it. Due to pluralism (time immemorial - you say), this land had fissures in politics. Rajas and maharajas kept fighting among themselves and when the invader came they were left to themselves. In modern times you needed the Constitution of India to come up with common minimum program or guidelines to bind the country and agree to a way of governance. Democracy beyond the constitution is no democracy. The will of the country is defined by the Government of the day at the center. Unless this acceptance is there, it will be anarchy. The collective will of the peopld needs to be respected.

Although its vital to point out the shortcomings in a society, its equally important to state facts as opposed to exaggeration of typical stereotypes. Mr Tharoor's talk her has many inaccuracies and stereotypical exaggerations that quite frankly provide no substantial gains to the Indian society.
We are largely peaceful is coz of less number of peace fools in the country and majority culture in more accepting unless we are talking about peace fools!
Mr. Tharoor, Show courage and stand up to Congress leadership. India needs a strong fighter to challenge Modi and the BJP machine. The time is running out for you, and India. If not now, when?
This man has got wisdom. He is in his 60s and maybe only got a public life of 10-15 years left. Wish he gets what he truly deserves.

India is a land of contradictions and paradoxes because it is the culmination of a lot of cultures, traditions, and revolutions from various parts of the world. It's the only country that accepts everyone and everything while maintaining a thread of consistency in the growth of it's civilization.
Don't exaggerate - things were not really unmade and remade every 200 years
An average person lifestyle religion and food has remained same for 1000 years... invaders hardly made a dent on our culture
@@supersaiyan_420 Why are you lying ?
Yes Sir, and harboring terror groups.
Yes the Country cannot go forward unless you are backward....and congress is the main culprit in this. Congress should have brought in merit based society right from 1947
😂
Is there any country where contradictions don’t exist?
North Korea...
It's enforced Harmony all the Time.🤪
All contradictions are ironed out by the dear leader.
Establishment of true and pure democracy where the leaders consistently try for establishing social justice will only solve the problems facing the people around the world.
A versatile speaker & capable person from Indian National Congress who will never get the opportunity to lead his Party.
There is no Democracy in his own Party.
Excellent lecture
Institutions were autonomous in India before? When? All govts exploited them to clear their path. You can criticize all you want but painting a picture as if this is some new phenomenon in posh English doesn't make it true
This govt merely expanded CBI etc capacity which ideally states should have done about their police forces
Always lovely
Shashi tharoor ✨💯
Marvellous indeed.
This is politics." Electoral autocracy" , the term, is a contradiction in terms. Whoever has coined the term has , perhaps, his own definition of democracy. People's representatives must rule decisively to bring about national development not like indecesive coalition s of yore in India. Was declaration of emergency in 1975, dismissing state governments at will, not electoral autocracy.
Just look at Turkey

Says someone without even a proper username. Adani's Salesman has become PM and bringing common man on streets to beg filling coffers of few business men.
@@finegentleman7820If indeed Adani's salesman has become the PM, then the opposition should have the ethical and moral courage to ensure that Adani does not get more business. Having said that ALL states where the opposition is in power are welcoming Adani to do business there. So what do we have here? Your logic falls apart here as the basis of the same is the hate of one person and his party. This is neither democratic nor has the temper to accept the opposite voice.
National flower of India is also lotus why forget this. Tricolor is Indian flag as well as part of Congress symbol.

It's a paradox that every dictator has climbed to power on the ladder of free speech. Immediately on attaining power each dictator has suppressed all free speech except his/her own.

300 million bharatvasis must Google - BHARAT - and make this happen. Please try it.
We should be proud of being a Bharatiya instead of Indian
Why not both?
Because 'Indian', that is what this word connotes has nothing to do with our civilisation. Bhārata has been so warped that self-understanding is absolutely absent among Indians.@@Apparently.Me.
@@paulthomas281 But we are not a homogeneous society or culture, we are a union of many cultures and ethnicities. A general name does not give predominance any one culture.
Europe is not a homogenous civilisation either, but in Europe you don't find the same degrees of self-ignorance. Europeans are actually quite good at studying themselves, which Indians are incapable of. 'India' is a Mediterranean term for our continent. It has no place in our mental map.@@Apparently.Me.
So you dont belong to indus civilization
Indian govt respects 3very society including matriarchal tibetan society based in Karnataka and dharamsala. Tibet society in India is matriarchy
Sashi you are canvassing so hard for PMship! Would the dynasty leaders give you the chance?
We are hoping for you!!
One line Summation Mr. ST - When the voters cast their ballots... Nobody is going to remember what you here.
There is Barath outside Lutyens and India within Lutyens
Biggest paradox: a man whose wife died under very suspicious circumstances can have a political role.
I hope Sadhguru guy is not politically important!
Also a big paradox: A man who left his wife the next morning can become PM. Why did he marry her and ruin her life? In those days it was not easy for a women to remarry. Why don't you mention this paradox too? Are you selective and biased?
Please don't rename "Indian Ocean' to 'Bharat Ocean'. It's the only Ocean named after a nation. It's ours. Keep it as is.

Mujhy shashi sir say real wala love hogya sahi bhi 😅itna pyara bolty hai k bass unhi ko dekhna dil bolta hai waha😅
Classic Tharoor. Calls out others as some sort of an excuse when asked about Congress indulging in certain offenses.
Congress: Vote for me, I am nicest, paragon of virtue & will never do anything wrong.
Voters: What about all these issues & problems by you?
Congress: Not my fault. Others do it too. Vote for me!

India and Hindustan are words that come from a province and a river of Pakistan. Sindh and river Indus respectively.
India was never a country before 1947 but a sub continent.
Then why our epic is called Maha Bharatha . Why British called their Colonial company East India Company . Though India was a collection of nation states the great Indian empire was there not strictly in political entity but surely in cultural and spiritual circles
Nice and nice ansers
What congress was doing for 70 years ? Was it not working for betterment of Bharat? They did what they could. So let others have chance to pr what they can do for India.
And now they have had their chance. Now let's have some OTHERS.
I used to respect the guy but over the years his inexcusable defense of a regime that should be a international pariah leads me to believe he is nothing more than a political hack
In the real world you have to choose between the better of the two devils.
Shashi Tharoor, you will surely have your dream fulfilled as PM for sure!!
Muslims deserve to be majority!!
Shashi ji is with congress or BJP is also a big paradox.😃
Shashi Turoooor at his best distorting about Bharat and its culture and values
You forget the other side of it. Due to pluralism (time immemorial - you say), this land had fissures in politics. Rajas and maharajas kept fighting among themselves and when the invader came they were left to themselves. In modern times you needed the Constitution of India to come up with common minimum program or guidelines to bind the country and agree to a way of governance. Democracy beyond the constitution is no democracy. The will of the country is defined by the Government of the day at the center. Unless this acceptance is there, it will be anarchy. The collective will of the peopld needs to be respected.
Democracy needs to be protected between elections by institutions. This may not be true till bull dozer comes in front of your door and u know realise u have no money and time to go to court because ur poor.
3 :00 ,Even in india candidates question the results ,Shashi's own party cried about EVM tampering lol
that's precisely why a very prominent BJP leader wrote a book on EVM tampering.
Why not make the EVMs auditable? Then no one needs to complain. It's very simple to do.
How come interviewers end up talking more than the guest they are interviewing. Are they camera hungry?

U can pass in the public but u can't kiss in the public Bravo Shashi Tharoor
We listen to tharoor and get enlightened and enchanted. When we go for election we see Rahul Gandhi's face and lose all confidence
Although its vital to point out the shortcomings in a society, its equally important to state facts as opposed to exaggeration of typical stereotypes. Mr Tharoor's talk her has many inaccuracies and stereotypical exaggerations that quite frankly provide no substantial gains to the Indian society.
Constitution already accepts Bharat. People accept Bharat. Only Macaulay putras want India.
Are you Macaulay putra ...writing in English?.. you hypocrite

Japan is Nihon not Nippon 🙈😅 but great conversation, enjoyable as always
What Shashi Tharoor fail to explain why opposition used INDIA acronym except to hoodwink ordinary Indians. Shame on Congress for such cheap tricks.
We are largely peaceful is coz of less number of peace fools in the country and majority culture in more accepting unless we are talking about peace fools!
It is not paradoxes but parallax of the deracinated observers.
what he forgot is that the one asking for cast census to create more trouble is his own party's mainleader😂
Hoping a primister seat

Mr. Tharoor, Show courage and stand up to Congress leadership. India needs a strong fighter to challenge Modi and the BJP machine. The time is running out for you, and India. If not now, when?
